A Soft Translation Rondel

In sprechgesang the woman spoke, she hoped for a soft translation; While she sought to relieve tension, that feeling inside of her woke; Her warm smile wore a foreign cloak which veiled an obscure emotion; In sprechgesang the woman spoke, she hoped for a soft translation; Every ounce of self control broke wandering through this delusion; A clear mind can end confusion, provide a path through mental smoke; In sprechgesang the woman spoke.

Dear Melani, I just loved how you beautifully capture the complexity of communication and emotion. I love how you intertwine the concept of sprechgesang with the struggle for understanding and connection. The imagery of a warm smile veiling deeper feelings truly reflects the layers we often hide. Melani this a thoughtful piece; it invites reflection on our own expressions and translations of love! Autumn Blessings, My Dear Friend, Daniel
